June 2016 Observations & Discussions

Speaking with people on Facebook from PA, they said this line is pretty boring and only producing some strong winds in the 40mph range. It doesn't get interesting unless you're in southeast PA. In other words, this probably won't be anything special. As expected.

GET READY PEEPS _ WOW LOOK AT THE LINE IN PA _ MADONNE!!!! HOPE IT STAYS TOGETHER

Frank what's your take cnj

NNJ not seeing much if any in terms of severe or strong t-storms - marine layer 70* here gonna kill it.
Maybe NW NJ and SNJ but not seeing it up here - oh well.

SPC pushed the enhanced area to now include NYC and the immediate tri-state area and all of NJ. Dunno what they are seeing if you all are saying this is going to be nothing. Also have 5% tornado including NYC, you do not see over 2% often.

Well, I guess we will see, my temps have been rising, now 72° and dew at 69... I think we will get some nice action before it hits the coast

Are you sure it's sleet. I think you mean hail.

Severe t storm warning, western sky look super dark

Whoa severe t storm now. Wind is intense

Raining in sheets, lightning and wind in Riverdale. Wow!

Yes hail and it just ended, fast storm! Could barely see the ground when it rolled in!yes white balls bouncing on the terrace!

I received about 5 minutes of heavy swirling rain accompanied by a brief intense downdraft, then just like that it was over.

Not even a rumble of thunder.

SPC did not do well with this one. Maybe they're working off rust from winter

Rain gauge recorded a whopping rate of 3.76" per hour, received .90 inches of rain in about 15 min...

I think they were counting on more sunlight to create instability. The low cloud shelf we endured most of the day really snuffed out this threat.

Definitely overdid watches and warnings in NNJ. .5" rain, a few rumbles of thunder, not so much wind here, but I am on the Eastern downslope of a hill, haven't heard of any wind damage reports in the area.
